Wasn't going to post tonight but have a "cute" story to share..... (of course as friends you know I sometime have a warped sense of humor)
Started the morning with a hand full of hair (no big deal). Problem was I was having dinner with my 80 yr old father and he doesn't know any of this. Due to his health issues I feel it's best to keep it from him now until he builds some strength. So all I can think is glue it in with hair gel and hope it holds. I mean he's 80 but he would figure something out with hair missing from my head.
So we meet at Chili's and have a nice dinner. During the night (as usual) he asks about my health and with a STRAIGHT face I say "I'm doing great - haven't felt this great in 2 years"! WHICH IS TRUE! So he starts telling me about his golfing buddy who wasn't looking good and found out had liver cancer. Without missing a beat he looks at me and says, "you know what the doctors say about liver cancer - once you have it it travel through your body and that's it - your dead"! Of course he was thinking of 20 years ago and my mothers situation. So calming look at him and say - "dad, I think medical technology has come a long way since then and there are many treatments to prolong that from happening". All the time inside my head I didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Sorry friends - must be the steroids.
Well, early morning tomorrow - brain radiation at 6:30AM. If I don't remember any of you after the first ZAP - well................
